I'm alive and well - and the fiesta got fully rebuilt after the incident with the 40 tonne lorry swapping lanes - 2 weeks before TOTB 
it got a new spec engine too with a 470 bhp head and some other interesting parts
I drive the car almost every day and its now a fully caged beast
to be honest its so fast on only 7psi it scares me
I've spent the last year working for Dyno Dynamics (they make the best rolling roads in the world) - the most power we have run so far was 1,830 bhp at the rear wheels (twin turbo v8 from canada !!!)
www.dyno.com.au
take a look here for some video
1023 bhp at the rear wheels

Yeah - i'm quite lucky I have my very own portable 1200 HP Rolling Road
I'm totally not sure but I think its the most powerful 2WD dyno in Europe
http://www.dyno.com.au/mobile_dyno.htm
if you take a look in fast ford - it was used for the rs1800 shootout at SCC
it fits in the back of my mercedes sprinter (remapped from 109 to 167 BHP )

It wasn't one of ours - our dyno has a built in wideband lambda sensor and a 5 bar map sensor
I've runs some crazy stuff, from TOTB Supra's to Oval racers, and all sorts of road cars
you can run anything on the dyno with wheels on it :
Go-Karts
Quads
Motorbikes
Scooters
Go-Peds
and even radio controlled cars !!
the craziest one i have run was a granny scooter - it made 0.7 BHP
